"Ah! it will be fine, it will be fine, it will be fine!" Well, not so sure... In the middle of the Terror period, the dark alleys of the medieval city rustle and bustle. In this month of August 1793, anger rumbles in the Lyon region. The Attorney General Syndic of the department of Ain sends you to go to the old city of Pérouges, to find out what could have happened to M. le Curé. It's up to you to reveal the real culprit of this horrible affair!

As a team, equipped with the investigation notebooks, you will crisscross the alleys of Pérouges to meet several witnesses, residents of the medieval city in 1793. Find the real culprit (s) and their link with the victim to solve this mystery!

THE DARK HOURS TRIO: In November, the intrigue at the Revolution returns for an exceptional date as part of a trio of events around the "dark hours". At the end of October, come and listen to tales of witchcraft and other obscure facts from Pérouges (October 21). Unless you prefer to shiver listening to the tragic story of the Priory of Blyes. In addition, your participation will be required through mini sensory workshops. (October 28)
